Meanwhile on Lemmy:

No one under 18 years of age or under the regulated minimum age defined by your local law (whichever is higher), is allowed to use or access the website.

On my instance nobody younger than the admin is allowed.

On which instance? Australia has that as a law, from my understanding, and given your instance's ccTLD, I would assume the law applies to that instance.

That actually varies by instance, it's been an issue because the lead mod of several tiny communities is under 18 and had to move their communities to an instance they're actually allowed to be on.
